Yoko Ono was born on 18 February 1933 in Tokyo, Japan. Her mother was Isoko Ono, the granddaughter of Zenjiro Yasuda of the Yasuda banking family, and her father was Eisuke Ono, a descendant of an Emperor of Japan.
Eisuke Ono was transferred through work to San Francisco two weeks after Yoko’s birth, and the rest of the family joined him in the USA shortly afterwards.

Amazing, no one wishes her anything. Says tons…
Hey August Lake, there are still people living in the past who firmly believe Yoko alone (or was it Linda) who broke up the Beatles. They need to grow up. I sent Yoko a nice birthday card. Emeraldeyes
What caused the breakup?
People are still living in the past and blame Yoko solely (or Linda) for breaking up the Beatles. The Beatles broke themselves up. Mainly George who did not want to tour anymore , and his frustration with John and Paul hogging all the songs. Brian dying who managed to keep the peace between conflicting egos was another factor, Mick Jagger recommending Allan Klein to John, when the Stones were in the process of firing him. Anyway happy birthday, again (I sent her a nice card) to Yoko. Emeraldeyes
August, you have to remember there are people who are still living in the past (I was one of them at one time) and firmly believe it was Yoko (or Linda) who broke up the Beatles. They need to grow up. Emeraldeyes
A lot, I think. I would believe that the conflict of their music tastes, interests was the main reason that caused the band’s breakup. From what we have seen what they had done after the Beatles, it was obvious that John loved to involve in the social revolution or events and play his big role in 1970s, which was completely different to Paul’s thought. I remembered that he said, been involved into social changes was not their business since they had became so famous and influential. So it is reasonable to conclude that their breaking is the non-ignorable conflict between their value on the perception of creation and behavior.
